such Board Resolution, which shall be a date not earlier than the date 30 days
prior to the first solicitation of Holders generally in connection therewith and
not later than the date such solicitation is completed. If such a record date is
fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver
or other Act may be given before or after such record date, but only the Holders
of record at the close of business on such record date shall be deemed to be
Holders for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite
proportion of Outstanding Securities have authorized or agreed or consented to
such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other
Act, and for that purpose the Outstanding Securities shall be computed

                                       10
<PAGE>

as of such record date; provided that no such authorization, agreement or
consent by the Holders on such record date shall be deemed effective unless it
shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later
than eleven months after the record date.

            In the absence of any such record date fixed by the Company,
regardless as to whether a solicitation of the Holders is occurring on behalf of
the Company or any Holder, the Trustee may, at its option, fix in advance a
record date for the determination of such Holders entitled to receive such
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act,
but the Trustee shall have no obligation to do so. Any such record date shall be
a date not more than 30 days prior to the first solicitation of Holders
generally in connection therewith no later than the date of such solicitation.

            (e) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,
waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Security shall bind every future Holder
of the same Security and the Holder of every Security issued upon the
registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in
respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee, any
Security Registrar, any Paying Agent, any Authenticating Agent or the Company in
reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such
Security.

      SECTION 105. Notices, etc., to Trustee and Company. Any request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Holders or other
document provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or
furnished to, or filed with,

            (1) the Trustee by a Holder or by the Company shall be sufficient
for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or
with the Trustee, at the Corporate Trust Office; Attention: Corporate Trust
Administration.

            (2) the Company by the Trustee or by any Holder shall be sufficient
for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in
writing and mailed, first class postage prepaid, to the Company addressed to it
at the address of its principal office specified in the first paragraph of this
Indenture or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Trustee
by the Company.

      SECTION 106. Notice to Holders; Waiver. Where this Indenture provides for
notice of any event to Holders of Securities by the Company or the Trustee, such
notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided)
if in writing and mailed first-class postage prepaid, to each such Holder
affected by such event, at his address as it appears in the Security Register,
not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date,
prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders of
Securities is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any
defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the
sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders of Securities given as
provided herein. Any notice mailed to a Holder in the manner herein prescribed
shall be conclusively deemed to have been received by such Holder, whether or
not such Holder actually receives such notice.

      If by reason of the suspension of or irregularities in regular mail
service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such
notice by mail, then such notification to

                                       11
<PAGE>

Holders of Securities as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall
constitute a sufficient notification to such Holders for every purpose
hereunder.

      Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be
waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before
or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice.
Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing
shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in
reliance upon such waiver.

      SECTION 107. Effect of Headings and Table of Contents. The Article and
Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and
shall not affect the construction hereof.

      SECTION 108. Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements in this
Indenture by the Company shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so
expressed or not.

      SECTION 109. Separability Clause. In case any provision in this Indenture
or in any Security shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity,
legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be
affected or impaired thereby.

      SECTION 110. Benefits of Indenture. Nothing in this Indenture or in the
Securities, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties
hereto, any Security Registrar, any Paying Agent, any Authenticating Agent and
their successors hereunder and the Holders any benefit or any legal or equitable
right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

      SECTION 111. Governing Law. This Indenture and the Securities shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York.
This Indenture is subject to the provisions of the TIA that are required to be
part of this Indenture and shall, to the extent applicable, be governed by such
provisions.

      SECTION 112. Legal Holidays. In any case where any Interest Payment Date,
Redemption Date, Repayment Date, sinking fund payment date, Stated Maturity or
Maturity of any Security shall not be a Business Day at any Place of Payment,
then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or any Security
other than a provision in the Securities of any series which specifically states
that such provision shall apply in lieu hereof), payment of interest or any
Additional Interest or principal (and premium, if any) need not be made at such
Place of Payment on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business
Day at such Place of Payment with the same force and effect as if made on the
Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Repayment Date or sinking fund payment
date, or at the Stated Maturity or Maturity, provided that no interest shall
accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest
Payment Date, Redemption Date, Repayment Date, sinking fund payment date, Stated
Maturity or Maturity, as the case may be.

      SECTION 113. No Recourse Against Others. An incorporator or any past,
present or future director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the
Company shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under
the Securities or this Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by
reason of such obligations or their creation. By accepting a

                                       12
<PAGE>

Security, each Holder shall waive and release all such liability. Such waiver
and release shall be part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities.

                                   ARTICLE TWO

                                SECURITIES FORMS

      SECTION 201. Form of Securities. The Securities of each series shall be in
substantially the forms as shall be established in one or more indentures
supplemental hereto or approved from time to time by or pursuant to a Board
Resolution in accordance with Section 301, shall have such appropriate
insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as are required or
permitted by this Indenture or any indenture supplemental hereto, and may have
such letters, numbers or other marks of identification or designation and such
legends or endorsements placed thereon as the Company may deem appropriate and
as are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture, or as may be
required to comply with any law or with any rule or regulation made pursuant
thereto or with any rule or regulation of any stock exchange on which the
Securities may be listed, or to conform to usage.

      The definitive Securities shall be printed, lithographed or engraved or
produced by any combination of these methods on a steel engraved border or steel
engraved borders or may be produced in any other manner, all as determined by
the officers executing such securities, as evidenced by their execution of such
Securities.

      SECTION 202. Form of Trustee's Certificate of Authentication. Subject to
Section 612, the Trustee's certificate of authentication shall be in
substantially the following form:

      This is one of the Securities of the series designated therein referred to
in the within-mentioned Indenture.


                                     _________________________________________
                                     as Trustee


                                     By:______________________________________
                                        Authorized Signatory

      SECTION 203. Securities Issuable in Global Form. If Securities of or
within a series are issuable in global form, as specified as contemplated by
Section 301, then, notwithstanding clause (8) of Section 301 and the provisions
of Section 302, any such Security shall represent such of the Outstanding
Securities of such series as shall be specified therein and may provide that it
shall represent the aggregate amount of Outstanding Securities of such series
from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate amount of Outstanding
Securities of such series represented thereby may from time to time be increased
or decreased to reflect exchanges. Any endorsement of a Security in global form
to reflect the amount, or any increase or decrease in the amount, of Outstanding
Securities represented thereby shall be made by the Trustee in such manner and
upon instructions given by such Person or Persons as shall be specified therein
or in the Company Order to be delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 303
or 304. Subject to the provisions of Section 303 and, if applicable, Section
304, the Trustee shall deliver and redeliver

                                       13
<PAGE>

any security in permanent global form in the manner and upon instructions given
by the Person or Persons specified therein or in the applicable Company Order.
If a Company Order pursuant to Section 303 or 304 has been, or simultaneously
is, delivered, any instructions by the Company with respect to endorsement or
delivery or redelivery of a Security in global form shall be in writing but need
not comply with Section 102 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of
Counsel.

      The provisions of the last sentence of Section 303 shall apply to any
security represented by a Security in global form if such Security was never
issued and sold by the Company and the Company delivers to the Trustee the
Security in global form together with written instructions (which need not
comply with Section 102 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel)
with regard to the reduction in the principal amount of Securities represented
thereby together with the written statement contemplated by the last sentence of
Section 303.

      Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 307, unless otherwise specified
as contemplated by Section 301, payment of principal of and any premium and
interest on any Security in permanent global form shall be made to the Person or
Persons specified therein.

      Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 308 and except as provided in
the preceding paragraph, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company
and the Trustee shall treat as the Holder of such principal amount of
Outstanding Securities represented by a permanent global Security the Holder of
such permanent global Security.

            (12) provisions, if any, granting special rights to the Holders of

            (17) the applicability, if any, of Sections 1402 and/or 1403 to the

as to denomination and except as may otherwise be provided in or pursuant to
such Board Resolution (subject to Section 303) and set forth in such Officer's
Certificate or in any such indenture supplemental hereto. All Securities of any
one series need not be issued at the same time and, unless otherwise provided, a

additional Securities of such series.

                                       16
<PAGE>

      If any of the terms of the Securities of any series is established by
action taken pursuant to one or more Board Resolutions, a copy of an appropriate
record of such action(s) shall be certified by the Secretary or an Assistant
Secretary of the Company and delivered to the Trustee at or prior to the
delivery of the Officer's Certificate setting forth the terms of the Securities
of such series.

      SECTION 302. Denominations. The Securities of each series shall be
issuable in such denominations as shall be specified as contemplated by Section
301. In the absence of any such provisions with respect to the Securities of any
series, the Securities of such series, other than Securities issued in global
form (which may be of any denomination), shall be issuable in denominations of
$1,000 and any integral multiple thereof.

      SECTION 303. Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating. The
Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by an executive officer of
the Company and attested by its Secretary or one of its Assistant Secretaries.
The signature of any of these individuals on the Securities may be manual or
facsimile signatures of the present or any future such authorized officer and
may be imprinted or otherwise reproduced on the Securities.

      Securities bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who
were at any time the proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company,
notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such
offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Securities or did not
hold such offices at the date of such Securities.

      At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this
Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities of any series executed by the
Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the
authentication and delivery of such Securities, and the Trustee in accordance
with the Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities.

      If all the Securities of any series are not to be issued at one time and
if the Board Resolution or supplemental indenture establishing such series shall
so permit, such Company Order may set forth procedures acceptable to the Trustee
for the issuance of such Securities and determining the terms of particular
Securities of such series, such as interest rate or formula, maturity date, date
of issuance and date from which interest shall accrue. In authenticating such
Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture
in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and
(subject to TIA Section 315(a) through 315(d)) shall be fully protected in
relying upon,

            (i) an Opinion of Counsel stating that

                  (a) the form or forms of such Securities have been established
            in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture;

                  (b) the terms of such Securities have been established in
            conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; and

                  (c) such Securities, when completed by appropriate insertions
            and executed and delivered by the Company to the Trustee for
            authentication in

                                       17
<PAGE>

            accordance with this Indenture, authenticated and delivered by the
            Trustee in accordance with this Indenture and issued by the Company
            in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in such
            Opinion of Counsel, will constitute legal, valid and binding
            obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their
            terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization
            and other similar laws of general applicability relating to or
            affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and to
            general equitable principles; and

            (ii) an Officer's Certificate stating that all conditions precedent
      provided for in this Indenture relating to the issuance of the Securities
      have been complied with and that, to the best of the knowledge of the
      signers of such certificate, no Event of Default with respect to any of
      the Securities shall have occurred and be continuing.

      If such form or terms have been so established, the Trustee shall not be
required to authenticate such Securities if the issue of such Securities
pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee's own rights, duties,
obligations or immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise
in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.

      Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 301 and of the preceding
paragraph, if all the Securities of any series are not to be issued at one time,
it shall not be necessary to deliver an Officer's Certificate otherwise required
pursuant to Section 301 or a Company Order, or an Opinion of Counsel or an
Officer's Certificate otherwise required pursuant to the preceding paragraph at
the time of issuance of each Security of such series, but such order, opinion
and certificates, with appropriate modifications to cover such future issuances,
shall be delivered at or before the time of issuance of the first Security of
such series.

      Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.

      No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be
valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Security a
certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein duly
executed by the Trustee by manual signature of an authorized signatory and such
certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only
evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder
and is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if any Security shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder
but never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company shall deliver such
Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 309 together
with a written statement (which need not comply with Section 102 and need not be
accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel) stating that such Security has never been
issued and sold by the Company, for all purposes of this Indenture such Security
shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and
shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

      SECTION 304. Temporary Securities.

            Pending the preparation of definitive Securities of any series, the
Company may execute, and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, temporary Securities which are printed, lithographed, typewritten,
mimeographed or otherwise produced, in

                                       18
<PAGE>

any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive
Securities in lieu of which they are issued, in registered form, and with such
appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the
officers executing such Securities may determine, as conclusively evidenced by
their execution of such Securities. In the case of Securities of any series,
such temporary Securities may be in global form.

            Except in the case of temporary Securities in global form (which
shall be exchanged as provided in or pursuant to a Board Resolution), if
temporary Securities of any series are issued, the Company will cause definitive
Securities of that series to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the
preparation of definitive Securities of such series, the temporary Securities of
such series shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities of such series upon
surrender of the temporary Securities of such series at the office or agency of
the Company in a Place of Payment for that series, without charge to the Holder.
Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities of any
series, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver
in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Securities of the
same series of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary
Securities of any series shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits
under this Indenture as definitive Securities of such series.

      SECTION 305. Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange. The
Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or
in any office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment a register for each
series of Securities (the registers maintained in such office or in any such
office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment being herein sometimes
referred to collectively as the "Security Register") in which, subject to such
reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the
registration of Securities and of transfers of Securities. The Security Register
shall be in written form or any other form capable of being converted into
written form within a reasonable time. The Trustee, at its Corporate Trust
Office, is hereby appointed "Security Registrar" for the purpose of registering
Securities and transfers of Securities on such Security Register as herein
provided. In the event that the Trustee shall cease to be Security Registrar, it
shall have the right to examine the Security Register at all reasonable times.

      Subject to the provisions of this Section 305, upon surrender for
registration of transfer of any Security of any series at any office or agency
of the Company in a Place of Payment for that series, the Company shall execute,
and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated
transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of the same series, of any
authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount, bearing a
number not contemporaneously outstanding, and containing identical terms and
provisions.

      Subject to the provisions of this Section 305, at the option of the
Holder, Securities of any series may be exchanged for other Securities of the
same series, of any authorized denomination or denominations and of a like
aggregate principal amount, containing identical terms and provisions, upon
surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at any such office or agency.
Whenever any such Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall
execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities which
the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

                                       19
<PAGE>

      Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as otherwise specified as
contemplated by Section 301, any permanent global Security shall be exchangeable
only as provided in this paragraph. If the depositary for any permanent global
Security is DTC, then, unless the terms of such global Security expressly permit
such global Security to be exchanged in whole or in part for definitive
Securities, a global Security may be transferred, in whole but not in part, only
to a nominee of DTC, or by a nominee of DTC to DTC, or to a successor to DTC for
such global Security selected or approved by the Company or to a nominee of such
successor to DTC. If at any time DTC notifies the Company that it is unwilling
or unable to continue as depositary for the applicable global Security or
Securities or if at any time DTC ceases to be a clearing agency registered under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 if so required by applicable law or
regulation, the Company shall appoint a successor depositary with respect to
such global Security or Securities. If (x) a successor depositary for such
global Security or Securities is not appointed by the Company within 90 days
after the Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such unwillingness,
inability or ineligibility, (y) an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing and the beneficial owners representing a majority in principal amount
of the applicable series of Securities represented by such global Security or
Securities advise DTC to cease acting as depositary for such global Security or
Securities or (z) the Company, in its sole discretion, determines at any time
that all Outstanding Securities (but not less than all) of any series issued or
issuable in the form of one or more global Securities shall no longer be
represented by such global Security or Securities, then the Company shall
execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver definitive Securities of
like series, rank, tenor and terms in definitive form in an aggregate principal
amount equal to the principal amount of such global Security or Securities. If
any beneficial owner of an interest in a permanent global Security is otherwise
entitled to exchange such interest for Securities of such series and of like
tenor and principal amount of another authorized form and denomination, as
specified as contemplated by Section 301 and provided that any applicable notice
provided in the permanent global Security shall have been given, then without
unnecessary delay but in any event not later than the earliest date on which
such interest may be so exchanged, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver definitive Securities in aggregate principal
amount equal to the principal amount of such beneficial owner's interest in such
permanent global Security. On or after the earliest date on which such interests
may be so exchanged, such permanent global Security shall be surrendered for
exchange by DTC or such other depositary as shall be specified in the Company
Order with respect thereto to the Trustee, as the Company's agent for such
purpose; provided, however, that no such exchanges may occur during a period
beginning at the opening of business 15 days before any selection of Securities
to be redeemed and ending on the relevant Redemption Date if the Security for
which exchange is requested may be among those selected for redemption. If a
Security is issued in exchange for any portion of a permanent global Security
after the close of business at the office or agency where such exchange occurs
on (i) any Regular Record Date and before the opening of business at such office
or agency on the relevant Interest Payment Date, or (ii) any Special Record Date
and the opening of business at such office or agency on the related proposed
date for payment of Defaulted Interest, interest or Defaulted Interest, as the
case may be, will not be payable on such Interest Payment Date or proposed date
for payment, as the case may be, in respect of such Security, but will be
payable on such Interest Payment Date or proposed date for payment, as the case
may be, only to the Person to whom interest in respect of such portion of such
permanent global Security is payable in accordance with the provisions of this
Indenture.

      All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of
Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same
debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Securities
surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

      Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or
for exchange or redemption shall (if so required by the Company or the Security
Registrar) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of
transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar, duly
executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.

      No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or
exchange of Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient
to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection
with any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, other than
exchanges pursuant to Section 304, 906, 1107 or 1305 not involving an transfer.

      The Company or the Trustee, as applicable, shall not be required (i) to
issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Security if such Security may be
among those selected for redemption during a period beginning at the opening of
business 15 days before selection of the Securities to be redeemed under Section
1103 and ending at the close of business on the day of the mailing of the
relevant notice of redemption or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange
any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except, in the case
of any Security to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not to be redeemed,
or (iii) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Security which has
been surrendered for repayment at the option of the Holder, except the portion,
if any, of such Security not to be so repaid.

      SECTION 306. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. If any
mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee or the Company, together with,
in proper cases, such security or indemnity as may be required by the Company or
the Trustee to save each of them or any agent of either of them harmless, the
Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange
therefor a new Security of the same series and principal amount, containing
identical terms and provisions and bearing a number not contemporaneously
outstanding.

      If there shall be delivered to the Company and to the Trustee (i) evidence
to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security, and
(ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them
and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the
Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide
purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon its request the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen
Security, a new Security of the same series and principal amount, containing
identical terms and provisions and bearing a number not contemporaneously
outstanding.

      Notwithstanding the provisions of the previous two paragraphs, in case any
such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to
become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a
new Security, pay such Security.

                                       21
<PAGE>

      Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section, the Company may
require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including
the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.

      Every new Security of any series issued pursuant to this Section in lieu
of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original
additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed,
lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be
entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with
any and all other Securities of that series duly issued hereunder.

      The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the
extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or
payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities.

      SECTION 307. Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. Except as
otherwise specified with respect to a series of Securities in accordance with
the provisions of Section 301, interest on any Security that is payable, and is
punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid
to the Person in whose name that Security (or one or more Predecessor
Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date
for such interest at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such
purpose pursuant to Section 1002; provided, however, that each installment of
interest on any Security may, at the Company's option, be paid by (i) mailing a
check for such interest, payable to or upon the written order of the Person
entitled thereto pursuant to Section 308, to the address of such Person as it
appears on the Security Register or (ii) transfer to an account maintained by
the payee.

      Unless otherwise provided as contemplated by Section 301, every permanent
global Security will provide that interest, if any, payable on any Interest
Payment Date will be paid to DTC with respect to that portion of such permanent
global Security held for its account by Cede & Co. for the purpose of permitting
such party to credit the interest received by it in respect of such permanent
global Security to the accounts of the beneficial owners thereof.

      Except as otherwise specified with respect to a series of Securities in
accordance with the provisions of Section 301, any interest on any Security of
any series that is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on
an Interest Payment Date (herein called "Defaulted Interest") shall forthwith
cease to be payable to the registered Holder thereof on the relevant Regular
Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest
may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in clause
(1) or (2) below:

            (1) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest
to the Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective
Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special
Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in
the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the
amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security of such series
and the date of the proposed payment (which shall not be less than 20 days after
such notice is received by the Trustee), and at the same time the Company shall
deposit with the Trustee dollars in an amount equal to the aggregate amount
proposed to be paid in respect to

                                       22
<PAGE>

such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee
for such deposit on or prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money
when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to
such Defaulted Interest as in this clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall
fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall
be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the
proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of
the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the
Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the
Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest
and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first-class postage prepaid,
to each Holder of Securities of such series at his address as it appears in the
Security Register not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. The
Trustee may, in its discretion, in the name and at the expense of the Company,
cause a similar notice to be published at least once in an Authorized Newspaper
in each place of payment, but such publications shall not be a condition
precedent to the establishment of such Special Record Date. Notice of the
proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor
having been mailed as aforesaid, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the
Persons in whose names the Securities of such series (or their respective
Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special
Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (2).

            (2) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest on the
Securities of any series in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the
requirements of any securities exchange on which such Securities may be listed,
and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given
by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause,
such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.

      Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section and Section 305, each
Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in
exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest
accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security.

      SECTION 308. Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentment of a Security
for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the
Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Security is
registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of
principal of (and premium, if any), and (subject to Sections 305 and 307)
interest on, such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not
such Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of
the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

      None of the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent or the Security
Registrar will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the
records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership
interests of a Security in global form or for maintaining, supervising or
reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.

      Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any global Security,
nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee, or any agent of the
Company or the Trustee, from giving effect to any written certification, proxy
or other authorization furnished by any depositary, as a

                                       23
<PAGE>

Holder, with respect to such global Security or impair, as between such
depositary and owners of beneficial interests in such global Security, the
operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of such
depositary (or its nominee) as Holder of such global Security.

      SECTION 309. Cancellation. All Securities surrendered for payment,
redemption, repayment at the option of the Holder, registration of transfer or
exchange or for credit against any sinking fund payment shall, if surrendered to
any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee, and any such
Securities and Securities surrendered directly to the Trustee for any such
purpose shall be promptly canceled by it. The Company may at any time deliver to
the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and
delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner
whatsoever, and may deliver to the Trustee (or to any other Person for delivery
to the Trustee) for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated
hereunder which the Company has not issued and sold, and all Securities so
delivered shall be promptly canceled by the Trustee. If the Company shall so
acquire any of the Securities, however, such acquisition shall not operate as a
redemption or satisfaction of the indebtedness represented by such Securities
unless and until the same are surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation. No
Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities
canceled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this
Indenture. Canceled Securities held by the Trustee shall be destroyed by the
Trustee and the Trustee shall deliver a certificate of such destruction to the
Company, unless by a Company Order the Company directs their return to it.

      SECTION 310. Computation of Interest. Except as otherwise specified as
contemplated by Section 301 with respect to Securities of any series, interest
on the Securities of each series shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months.

                                  ARTICLE FOUR

                           SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE

      SECTION 401. Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. This Indenture shall
upon Company Request cease to be of further effect with respect to any series of
Securities specified in such Company Request (except as to any surviving rights
of registration of transfer or exchange of Securities of such series herein
expressly provided for and any right to receive Additional Interest, as provided
in Section 1008), and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order, and at the
expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as to such series when

            (1) either

                  (A) all Securities of such series theretofore authenticated
            and delivered (other than (i) as provided in Section 305, Securities
            of such series which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which
            have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 306, and (ii)
            Securities of such series for whose payment money has theretofore
            been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the
            Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such
            trust, as provided in Section 1003) have been delivered to the
            Trustee for cancellation; or

                                       24
<PAGE>

                  (B) all Securities of such series not theretofore delivered to
            the Trustee for cancellation

                        (i) have become due and payable, or

                        (ii) will become due and payable at their Stated
                  Maturity within one year, or

                        (iii) if redeemable at the option of the Company, are to
                  be called for redemption within one year under arrangements
                  satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of
                  redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of
                  the Company,

and the Company, in the case of (i), (ii) or (iii) above, has irrevocably
deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for
the purpose and in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire
indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for
cancellation, for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, and any
Additional Interest with respect thereto, to the date of such deposit (in the
case of Securities which have become due and payable) or to the Stated Maturity
Redemption Date, as the case may be;

            (2) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable
hereunder by the Company; and

            (3) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officer's
Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions
precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this
Indenture as to such series have been complied with.

      Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the
obligations of the Company to the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee under
Section 606, the obligations of the Company to any Authenticating Agent under
Section 611 and, if money shall have been deposited with and held by the Trustee
pursuant to subclause (B) of clause (1) of this Section, the obligations of the
Trustee under Section 402 and the last paragraph of Section 1003 shall survive.

      SECTION 402. Application of Trust Funds. Subject to the provisions of the
last paragraph of Section 1003, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to
Section 401 shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the
provisions of the Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly
or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying
Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the
principal (and premium, if any), and any interest and Additional Interest for
whose payment such money has been deposited with or received by the Trustee, but
such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required
by law.

                                  ARTICLE FIVE

                                    REMEDIES

      SECTION 501. Events of Default. "Event of Default," wherever used herein
with respect to any particular series of Securities, means any one of the
following events (whatever

                                       25
<PAGE>

the reason for such Event of Default and whether or not it shall be voluntary or
involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment,
decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any
administrative or governmental body):

            (1) default in the payment of any interest upon any Security of that
series when it becomes due and payable on an Interest Payment Date other than at
Maturity, including Additional Interest (as defined in clause (ii) of the
definition thereof) in respect thereof, and continuance of such default for a
period of thirty (30) days; provided, however, that a valid extension of the
interest payment period by the Company pursuant to the terms of a supplemental
indenture authorizing the Security of that series shall not constitute a default
in the payment of interest for this purpose; or

            (2) default in the payment of Additional Interest (as defined in
clause (i) of the definition thereof) and the continuance of such default for a
period of thirty (30) days; or

            (3) default in the payment of the principal of, (or premium, if any)
or interest (including Additional Interest (as defined in clause (ii) of the
definition thereof)) on any Security of that series at its Maturity; or

            (4) default in the deposit of any sinking fund payment, when and as
due by the terms of any Security of that series; or

            (5) default in the performance, or breach, of any covenant or
warranty of the Company in this Indenture with respect to any Security of that
series (other than a covenant or warranty a default in whose performance or
whose breach is elsewhere in this Section specifically dealt with), and
continuance of such default or breach for a period of 60 days after there has
been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Company by the Trustee or to
the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount
of the Outstanding Securities of that series a written notice specifying such
default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice
is a "Notice of Default" hereunder; or

            (6) default under any bond, debenture, note or other evidence of
indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company (including obligations under
leases required to be capitalized on the balance sheet of the lessee under
generally accepted accounting principles, but not including any indebtedness or
obligations for which recourse is limited to property purchased) in an aggregate
principal amount in excess of $25,000,000 or under any mortgage, indenture or
instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or
evidenced any indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company (including such
leases but not including such indebtedness or obligations for which recourse is
limited to property purchased) in an aggregate principal amount in excess of
$25,000,000 by the Company, whether such indebtedness now exists or shall
hereafter be created, which default shall have resulted in such indebtedness
becoming or being declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would
otherwise have become due and payable or such obligations being accelerated,
without such acceleration having been rescinded or annulled; or

            (7) the Company or any Significant Subsidiary pursuant to or within
the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:

                                       26
<PAGE>

                  (A) commences a voluntary case,

                  (B) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in
            an involuntary case,

                  (C) consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for
            all or substantially all of its property, or

                  (D) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its
            creditors; or

            (8) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree
under any Bankruptcy Law that:

                  (A) is for relief against the Company or any Significant
            Subsidiary in an involuntary case,

                  (B) appoints a Custodian of the Company or any Significant
            Subsidiary or for all or substantially all of either of its
            property, or

                  (C) orders the liquidation of the Company or any Significant
            Subsidiary, and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect
            for 60 days; or

            (9) the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, winding up or
termination of the Securities Trust except in connection with:

                  (A) the distribution of Securities to holders of Trust
            Preferred Securities in liquidation of the Securities Trust,

                  (B) the redemption of all outstanding Trust Preferred
            Securities, or

                  (C) certain mergers or consolidations permitted by the Trust
            Agreement; or

      (10) any other Event of Default provided with respect to Securities of
that series.

      As used in this Section 501, the term "Bankruptcy Law" means title 11,
U.S. Code or any similar Federal or State law for the relief of debtors and the
term "Custodian" means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator or other
similar official under any Bankruptcy Law.

      SECTION 502. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. If an
Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series at that time
Outstanding occurs and is continuing, then and in every such case the Trustee or
the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of that series may declare the principal (or, if any Securities are
Original Issue Discount Securities, such portion of the principal as may be
specified in the terms thereof) of all the Securities of that series, and
premium, if any, to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to
the Company (and to the Trustee if given by the Holders), and upon any such
declaration such principal or specified portion thereof shall become immediately
due and payable.

                                       27
<PAGE>

         At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to
Securities of any series has been made and before a judgment or decree for
payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this
Article provided, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of that series, by written notice to the Company and the
Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

            (1) the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum
sufficient to pay:

                  (A) all overdue installments of interest on and any Additional
            Interest payable in respect of all Outstanding Securities of that
            series,

                  (B) the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Outstanding
            Securities of that series which have become due otherwise than by
            such declaration of acceleration and interest thereon at the rate or
            rates borne by or provided for in such Securities,

                  (C) to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful,
            interest upon overdue installments of interest and any Additional
            Interest at the rate or rates borne by or provided for in such
            Securities, and

                  (D) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the
            reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
            Trustee, its agents and counsel; and

            (2) all Events of Default with respect to Securities of that series,
other than the nonpayment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest
on Securities of that series which have become due solely by such declaration of
acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 513.

      No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right
consequent thereon.

      SECTION 503. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by
Trustee. The Company covenants that if:

            (1) default is made in the payment of any installment of interest or
Additional Interest, if any, on any Security of any series when such interest or
Additional Interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a
period of 30 days, or

            (2) default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium,
if any, on) any Security of any series at its Maturity,

then the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to the Trustee, for the
benefit of the Holders of such Securities of such series, the whole amount then
due and payable on such Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and
interest and Additional Interest, with interest upon any overdue principal (and
premium, if any) and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be
legally enforceable, upon any overdue installments of interest or Additional
Interest, if

                                       28
<PAGE>

any, at the rate or rates borne by or provided for in such Securities, and, in
addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs
and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

         If the Company fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand,
the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a
judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may
prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same
against the Company or any other obligor upon such Securities of such series and
collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by
law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon such Securities
of such series, wherever situated.

      If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of any series occurs and
is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce
its rights and the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series by such
appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to
protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any
covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power
granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy.

      SECTION 504. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of
any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization
arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to
the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities or the property of the
Company or of such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective
of whether the principal of the Securities of any series shall then be due and
payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of
whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Company for the payment of
overdue principal, premium, if any, or interest) shall be entitled and
empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

            (i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount, or such lesser
amount as may be provided for in the Securities of such series, of principal
(and premium, if any) and interest and Additional Interest if any, owing and
unpaid in respect of the Securities and to file such other papers or documents
as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee
(including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements
and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed
in such judicial proceeding, and

            (ii) to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or
deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator (or
other similar official) in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by
each Holder of Securities of such series to make such payments to the Trustee,
and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments
directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee and
any predecessor Trustee, their agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the
Trustee or any predecessor Trustee under Section 606.

                                       29
<PAGE>

      Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to
authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder of a Security
any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the
Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to
vote in respect of the claim of any Holder of a Security in any such proceeding.

      SECTION 505. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities.
All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or any of the Securities
may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of
the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and
any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name
as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after
provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the
ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such
judgment has been recovered.

      SECTION 506. Application of Money Collected. Any money collected by the
Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be applied in the following order, at the
date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such
money on account of principal (or premium, if any) or interest and any
Additional Interest, upon presentation of the Securities, and the notation
thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if
fully paid:

      FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee and any predecessor
      Trustee under Section 606;

      SECOND: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid upon the
      Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest and any
      Additional Interest payable, in respect of which or for the benefit of
      which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or
      priority of any kind, according to the aggregate amounts due and payable
      on such Securities for principal (and premium, if any), interest and
      Additional Interest, respectively; and

      THIRD: To the payment of the remainder, if any, to the Company.

      SECTION 507. Limitation on Suits. No Holder of any Security of any series
shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with
respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or
for a other remedy hereunder, unless:

            (1) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee
of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of that series;

            (2) the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of that series shall have made written request to the
Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own
name as Trustee hereunder;

            (3) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity
reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and
liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request;

                                       30
<PAGE>

            (4) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice,
request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding; and

            (5) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been
given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority in
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of that series;

it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall have
any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision
of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of
such Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any
other of such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in
the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all such
Holders.

      SECTION 508. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium,
if any, Interest and Additional Interest. Notwithstanding any other provision in
this Indenture, (1) the Holder of any Security shall have the right which is
absolute and unconditional to receive payment of the principal of (and premium,
if any) and subject to Sections 305 and 307, interest on, and any Additional
Interest in respect of, such Security on the respective due dates expressed in
such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on the Redemption Date) and to
institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall
not be impaired without the consent of such Holder and (2) so long as the
Securities of any series are held by a Securities Trust, a registered holder of
Trust Preferred Securities issued by such Securities Trust may institute a legal
proceeding directly against the Company, without first instituting a legal
proceeding directly against or requesting or directing that action be taken by
the property trustee of such Securities Trust or any other Person, for
enforcement of payment to such registered holder of principal of or interest on
Securities of such series having a principal amount equal to the aggregate
stated liquidation amount of such Trust Preferred Securities of such registered
holder on or after the due dates therefor specified or provided for in the
Securities of such series.

      SECTION 509. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any
Holder of a Security has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or
remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or
abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to
such Holder, then and in every such case, the Company, the Trustee and the
Holders of Securities shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, be
restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and
thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue
as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

      SECTION 510. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided
with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or
stolen Securities in the last paragraph of Section 306, no right or remedy
herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders of Securities
is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and
remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to
every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law
or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy
hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or
employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

                                       31
<PAGE>

      SECTION 511. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the
Trustee or of any Holder of any Security to exercise any right or remedy
accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or
constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein.
Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Trustee or to the
Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed
expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders of Securities, as the case may be.

      SECTION 512. Control by Holders of Securities. The Holders of not less
than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series
shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any
proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or
power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series,
provided that

            (1) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or
with this Indenture,

            (2) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the
Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction, and

            (3) the Trustee need not take any action which might involve it in
personal liability or be unduly prejudicial to the Holders of Securities of such
series not joining therein.

      SECTION 513. Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of not less than a
majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series may on
behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such series waive any past
default hereunder with respect to such series and its consequences, except a
default

            (1) in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or
interest on or Additional Interest payable in respect of any Security of such
series, or

            (2) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article
Nine cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each
Outstanding Security of such series affected.

      Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of
Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose
of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other
default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

      SECTION 514. Waiver of Usury, Stay or Extension Laws. The Company
covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any
time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the
benefit or advantage of any usury, stay or extension law wherever enacted, now
or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the
performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may
lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such
law, and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any
power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of
every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

                                       32
<PAGE>

      SECTION 515. Undertaking for Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree,
and each Holder of any Security by his acceptance thereof shall be deemed to
have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the
enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against
the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any
party litigant in such suit of any undertaking to pay the costs of such suit,
and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including
reasonable attorneys fees, against any party litigant in such suit having due
regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party
litigant; but the provisions of this Section shall not apply to any suit
instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of
Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the
outstanding securities, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the
enforcement or the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest
on any Security on or after the respective Stated Maturities expressed in such
Security (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date).

                                   ARTICLE SIX

                                   THE TRUSTEE

      SECTION 601. Notice of Defaults. Within 90 days after the occurrence of
any default hereunder with respect to the Securities of any series, the Trustee
shall transmit in the manner and to the extent provided in TIA Section 313(c),
notice of such default hereunder known to the Trustee, unless such default shall
have been cured or waived; provided, however, that, except in the case of a
default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on
or any Additional Interest with respect to any Security of such series, or in
the payment of any sinking fund installment with respect to the Securities of
such series, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so
long as Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determine that the
withholding of such notice is in the interests of the Holders of the Securities;
and provided further that in the case of any default or breach of the character
specified in Section 501(4) with respect to the Securities of such series, no
such notice to Holders shall be given until at least 60 days after the
occurrence thereof. For the purpose of this Section, the term "default" means
any event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an
Event of Default with respect to the Securities of such series.

      SECTION 602. Certain Rights of Trustee. Subject to the provisions of TIA
Section 315(a) through 315(d):

            (1) the Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or
refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument,
opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture,
note or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been
signed or presented by the proper party or parties;

            (2) any request or direction of the Company mentioned herein shall
be sufficiently evidenced by a Company Request or Company Order (other than
delivery of any Security to the Trustee for authentication and delivery pursuant
to Section 303 which shall be sufficiently evidenced as provided therein) and
any resolution of the Board of Directors may be sufficiently evidenced by a
Board Resolution;

                                       33
<PAGE>

            (3) whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee
shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking,
suffering or omitting any Section hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence
be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part,
rely upon an Officer's Certificate;

            (4) the Trustee may consult with counsel and the advice of such
counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and
protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder
in good faith and in reliance thereon;

            (5) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the
rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of
any of the Holders of Securities of any series pursuant to this Indenture,
unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee adequate security or
indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and
liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or
direction;

            (6) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into
the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement,
instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond,
debenture, note or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion,
may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it
may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or
investigation, it shall be entitled to make reasonable examination of the books,
records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney
following reasonable notice to the Company;

            (7) the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or
perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or
attorneys and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or
negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care by it
hereunder; and

            (8) the Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered
or omitted by it in good faith and reasonably believed by it to be authorized or
within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture.

      The Trustee shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or
otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties
hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have
reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate
indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

      Except during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Trustee
undertakes to perform only such duties as are specifically set forth in this
Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this
Indenture against the Trustee. If an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, the Trustee shall, prior to the receipt of directions from the
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities, exercise its rights
and powers and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a
prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of
his own affairs.

      SECTION 603. Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Securities. The
recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except the Trustee's
certificate of authentication, shall be

                                       34
<PAGE>

taken as the statements of the Company, and neither the Trustee nor any
Authenticating Agent assumes any responsibility for their correctness. The
Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this
Indenture or of the Securities, except that the Trustee represents that it is
duly authorized to execute and deliver this Indenture, authenticate the
Securities and perform its obligations hereunder. Neither the Trustee nor any
Authenticating Agent shall be accountable for the use or application by the
Company of Securities or the proceeds thereof.

      SECTION 604. May Hold Securities. The Trustee, any Paying Agent, Security
Registrar, Authenticating Agent or any other agent of the Company, in its
individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities
and, subject to TIA Sections 310(b) and 311, may otherwise deal with the Company
with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Paying Agent,
Security Registrar, Authenticating Agent or such other agent.

      SECTION 605. Money Held in Trust. Money held by the Trustee in trust
hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required
by law. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money
received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed with the Company.

      SECTION 606. Compensation and Reimbursement. The Company agrees:

            (1) to pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation
for all services rendered by it hereunder (which compensation shall not be
limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an
express trust);

            (2) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse each
of the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee upon its request for all reasonable
expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in
accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the reasonable
compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel),
except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to any
act for which the Trustee shall have been adjudged negligent or to have acted in
bad faith; and

            (3) to indemnify each of the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee
for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred,
except for negligence or actions taken in bad faith, arising out of or in
connection with the acceptance or administration of the trust or trusts
hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any
claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its
powers or duties hereunder.

      When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with an
Event of Default specified in Section 501(6) or Section 501(7), the expenses
(including the reasonable charges and expenses of its counsel) and the
compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of
administration under any applicable Federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or
other similar law.

      As security for the performance of the obligations of the Company under
this Section, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities upon all
property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held
in trust for the payment of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on
particular Securities.

                                       35
<PAGE>

      The provisions of this Section shall survive the termination of this
Indenture.

      SECTION 607. Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility; Conflicting
Interests. There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be
eligible to act as Trustee under TIA Section 310(a)(1) and shall have a combined
capital and surplus of at least $10,000,000. If such corporation publishes
reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or the requirements of
Federal, State or District of Columbia supervising or examining authority, then
for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such
corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth
in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee
shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it
shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified
in this Article. The Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 310(b).

      SECTION 608. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

            (a) No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a
successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the
acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with the
applicable requirements of Section 609.

            (b) The Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the
Securities of one or more series by giving written notice thereof to the
Company. If an instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee shall not have
been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of
resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

            (c) The Trustee may be removed at any time with respect to the
Securities of any series by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount
of the Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Trustee and to the
Company.

            (d) If at any time:

                  (1) the Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of
            TIA Section 310(b) after written request therefor by the Company or
            by any Holder of a Security who has been a bona fide Holder of a
            Security for at least six months, or

                  (2) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 607
            and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the
            Company or by any Holder of a Security who has been a bona fide
            Holder of a Security for at least six months, or

                  (3) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be
            adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or of
            its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take
            charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for
            the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,

then, in any such case, (i) the Company by or pursuant to a Board Resolution may
remove the Trustee and appoint a successor Trustee with respect to all
Securities, or (ii) subject to TIA

                                       36
<PAGE>

Section 315(e), any Holder of a Security who has been a bona fide Holder of a
Security for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others
similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal
of the Trustee with respect to all Securities and the appointment of a successor
Trustee or Trustees.

            (e) If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of
acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause with
respect to the Securities of one or more series, the Company, by or pursuant to
a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with
respect to the Securities of that or those series (it being understood that any
such successor Trustee may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or
more or all of such series and that at any time there shall be only one Trustee
with respect to the Securities of any particular series). If, within one year
after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such
vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series shall
be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities of such series delivered to the Company and the retiring
Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance
of such appointment, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities
of such series and to that extent supersede the successor Trustee appointed by
the Company. If no successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any
series shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders of Securities
and accepted appointment in the manner hereinafter provided, any Holder of a
Security who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security of such series for at
least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated,
petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor
Trustee with respect to Securities of such series.

            (f) The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each
removal of the Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series and each
appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of any series
in the manner provided for notices to the Holders of Securities in Section 106.
Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the
Securities of such series and the address of its Corporate Trust Office.

      SECTION 609. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. (a) In case of the
appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to all Securities,
every such successor Trustee shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the
Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment,
and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become
effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or
conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties
of the retiring Trustee; but, on request of the Company or the successor
Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges, execute and
deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights,
powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee, and shall duly assign, transfer and
deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring
Trustee hereunder, subject nevertheless to its claim, if any, provided for in
Section 606.

            (b) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with
respect to the Securities of one or more (but not all) series, the Company, the
retiring Trustee and each successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of
one or more series shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto,
pursuant to Article Nine, wherein each successor Trustee shall accept such
appointment and which (1) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or

                                       37
<PAGE>

desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Trustee all
the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to
the Securities of that or those series to which the appointment of such
successor Trustee relates, (2) if the retiring Trustee is not retiring with
respect to all Securities, shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed
necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties
of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series
as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in
the retiring Trustee, and (3) shall add to or change any of the provisions of
this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the
administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being
understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall
constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust and that each such
Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from
any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee; and upon
the execution and delivery of such supplemental indenture the resignation or
removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided
therein and each such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or
conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties
of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Securities of that or those series
to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates; but, on request of
the Company or any successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall duly assign,
transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by
such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities of that or those
series to which the appointment of such successor Trustee relates.

            (c) upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company shall
execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and
confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred
to in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, as the case may be.

            (d) No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the
time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible
under this Article.

      SECTION 610. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business.
Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which
it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion
or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation
succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the
Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such
corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article,
without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of
any of the parties hereto. In case any Securities shall have been authenticated,
but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger,
conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such
authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect
as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities. In case
any Securities shall not have been authenticated by such predecessor Trustee,
any such successor Trustee may authenticate and deliver such Securities, in
either its own name or that of its predecessor Trustee, with the full force and
effect which this Indenture provides for the certificate of authentication of
the Trustee.

      SECTION 611. Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company. If and
when the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Company (or any other
obligor upon the Securities), the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of
the Trust Indenture Act regarding the collection

                                       38
<PAGE>

of claims against the Company (or any such other obligor). For purposes of TIA
Section 311(b)(4) and (6):

            (1) "cash transaction" means any transaction in which full payment
for goods or securities sold is made within seven days after delivery of the
goods or securities in currency or in checks or other orders drawn upon banks or
bankers and payable upon demand; and

            (2) "self-liquidating paper" means any draft, bill of exchange,
acceptance or obligation which is made, drawn, negotiated or incurred by the
Company (or any such obligor) for the purpose of financing the purchase,
processing, manufacturing, shipment, storage or sale of goods, wares or
merchandise and which is secured by documents evidencing title to, possession
of, or a lien upon the goods, wares or merchandise or the receivables or
proceeds arising from the sale of the goods, wares or merchandise previously
constituting the security, provided the security is received by the Trustee
simultaneously with the creation of the creditor relationship with the Company
(or any such obligor) arising from the making, drawing, negotiating or incurring
of the draft, bill of exchange, acceptance or obligation.

      SECTION 612. Appointment of Authenticating Agent. At any time when any of
the Securities remain Outstanding, the Trustee may appoint an Authenticating
Agent or Agents with respect to one or more series of Securities which shall be
authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities of such
series issued upon exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption or
repayment thereof, and Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the
benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as
if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Any such appointment shall be
evidenced by an instrument in writing signed by a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee, a copy of which instrument shall be promptly furnished to the Company.
Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery
of Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee's certificate of authentication,
such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf
of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication
executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each
Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Company and shall at all times
be a bank or trust company or corporation organized and doing business and in
good standing under the laws of the United States or of any State or the
District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent,
having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $10,000,000 and subject
to supervision or examination by Federal or State authorities. If such
Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant
to law or the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority,
then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such
Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as
set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. In case at any
time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately
in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section.

      Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or
converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting
from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent
shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate agency or
corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be an
Authenticating Agent, provided such corporation shall be otherwise eligible
under this

                                       39
<PAGE>

Section, without the execution or filing of any paper or further act on the part
of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.

      An Authenticating Agent for any series of Securities may at any time
resign by giving written notice of resignation to the Trustee for such series
and to the Company. The Trustee for any series of Securities may at any time
terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of
termination to such Authenticating Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such
a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such
Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section, the Trustee for such series may appoint a successor
Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Company and shall give
notice of such appointment to all Holders of Securities of the series with
respect to which such Authenticating Agent will serve in the manner set forth in
Section 106. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its
appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties
of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an
Authenticating Agent herein. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be
appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section.

      The Company agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time
reasonable compensation including reimbursement of its reasonable expenses for
its services under this Section.

      If an appointment with respect to one or more series is made pursuant to
this Section, the Securities of such series may have endorsed thereon, in
addition to or in lieu of the Trustee's certificate of authentication, an
alternate certificate of authentication substantially in the following form:

      This is one of the Securities of the series designated therein referred to
in the within-mentioned Indenture.


                                     _________________________________________
                                     as Trustee

                                  ARTICLE SEVEN

                HOLDERS' LISTS AND REPORTS BY TRUSTEE AND COMPANY

      SECTION 701. Communications by Holders with Other Holders; Disclosure of
Names and Addresses of Holders. Holders of Securities may communicate pursuant
to TIA Section 312(b) with other Holders with respect to their rights under this
Indenture or the Securities. Every Holder of Securities, by receiving and
holding the same, agrees with the Company and the Trustee that neither the
Company nor the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent nor any Paying Agent nor
any Security Registrar shall be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of
any information as to the names and addresses of the Holders of Securities in
accordance with TIA

                                       40
<PAGE>

Section 312, regardless of the source from which such information was derived,
and that the Trustee shall not be held accountable by reason of mailing any
material pursuant to a request made under TIA Section 312(b).

      SECTION 702. Reports by Trustee. Within 60 days after May 15 of each year
commencing with the first May 15 after the first issuance of Securities pursuant
to this Indenture, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Holders of
Securities as provided in TIA Section 313(c) a brief report dated as of such May
15 if required by TIA Section 313(a).

      SECTION 703. Reports by Company. The Company will:

            (a) file with the Trustee, within 15 days after the Company is
required to file the same with the Commission, copies of the annual reports and
of the information, documents and other reports (or copies of such portions of
any of the foregoing as the Commission may from time to time by rules and
regulations prescribe) which the Company may be required to file with the
Commission pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act. In the
event that the Company is no longer subject to these periodic requirements of
the Exchange Act, it will nonetheless continue to file reports with the
Commission and the Trustee and mail such reports to each Holder of Securities as
if it were subject to such reporting requirements. Regardless of whether the
Company is required to furnish such reports to its stockholders pursuant to the
Exchange Act, the Company will cause its consolidated financial statements and a
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial
Condition" written report, similar to those that would have been required to
appear in annual or quarterly reports, to be delivered to Holders of Securities;

            (b) file with the Trustee and the Commission, in accordance with
rules and regulations prescribed from time to time by the Commission, such
additional information, documents and reports with respect to compliance by the
Company with the conditions and covenants of this Indenture as may be required
from time to time by such rules and regulations;

            (c) the Trustee shall transmit the reports required by TIA Section
313(b) at the times specified therein; and

            (d) transmit by mail to the Holders of Securities, any securities
exchange upon which the Securities may be listed and the Commission, within 30
days after the filing thereof with the Trustee, in the manner and to the extent
provided in TIA Section 313(c) and (d), such information, documents and reports
required to be filed by the Company pursuant to paragraphs (a) and (b) of this
Section as may be required by rules and regulations prescribed from time to time
by the Commission.

      SECTION 704. Company to Furnish Trustee Names and Addresses of Holders.
The Company will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee:

            (a) semi-annually, not later than 15 days after the Regular Record
Date for interest for each series of Securities, a list, in such form as the
Trustee may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the Holders of
Securities of such series as of such Regular Record Date, or if there is no
Regular Record Date for interest for such series of Securities, semi-

                                       41
<PAGE>

annually, upon such dates as are set forth in the Board Resolution or indenture
supplemental hereto authorizing such series, and

            (b) at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing,
within 30 days after the receipt by the Company of any such request, a list of
similar form and content as of a date not more than 15 days prior to the time
such list is furnished,

provided, however, that, so long as the Trustee is the Security Registrar, no
such list shall be required to be furnished.

                                  ARTICLE EIGHT

                CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, SALE, LEASE OR CONVEYANCE

      SECTION 801. Consolidations and Mergers of Company and Sales, Leases and
Conveyances Permitted Subject to Certain Conditions. The Company may consolidate
with, or sell or convey all or substantially all of its assets to, or merge with
or into any other entity, provided that in any such case, (1) either the Company
shall be the continuing entity, or the successor entity (if other than the
Company) formed by or resulting from any such consolidation or merger or which
shall have received the transfer of such assets shall expressly assume the
Company's obligations under the Guarantee and the due and punctual payment of
the principal of (and premium, if any) and any interest (including all
Additional Interest, if any, payable pursuant to Section 1008) on all of the
Securities, and the due and punctual performance and observance of all of the
covenants and conditions of this Indenture to be performed by the Company and
(2) immediately after giving effect to such transaction and treating any
indebtedness which becomes an obligation of the Company as a result thereof as
having been incurred by the Company at the time of such transaction, no Event of
Default, and no event which, after notice or the lapse of time, or both, would
become an Event of Default, shall have occurred and be continuing under this
Indenture.

      SECTION 802. Rights and Duties of Successor Corporation. In case of any
such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance and upon any such assumption by
the successor entity, such successor entity shall succeed to and be substituted
for the Company, with the same effect as if it had been named herein as the
party of the first part, and the predecessor entity shall be relieved of any
further obligation under this Indenture and the Securities. Such successor
entity thereupon may cause to be signed, and may issue either in its own name or
in the name of the Company, any or all of the Securities issuable hereunder
which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Company and delivered to the
Trustee; and, upon the order of such successor entity, instead of the Company,
and subject to all the terms, conditions and limitations in this Indenture
prescribed, the Trustee shall authenticate and shall deliver any Securities
which previously shall have been signed and delivered by the officers of the
Company to the Trustee for authentication, and any Securities which such
successor entity thereafter shall cause to be signed and delivered to the
Trustee for that purpose. All the Securities so issued shall in all respects
have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Securities
theretofore or thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture
as though all of such Securities had been issued at the date of the execution
hereof.

                                       42
<PAGE>

      In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, such
changes in phraseology and form (but not in substance) may be made in the
Securities thereafter to be issued as may be appropriate.

      SECTION 803. Officer's Certificate and Opinion of Counsel. Any
consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance permitted under Section 801 is also
subject to the condition that the Trustee receive an Officer's Certificate and
an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that any such consolidation, merger, sale or
conveyance, and the assumption by any entity corporation complies with the
provisions of this Article and that all conditions precedent herein provided for
relating to such transaction have been complied with.

                                  ARTICLE NINE

                             SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES

      SECTION 901. Supplemental Indentures without Consent of Holders. Without
the consent of any Holders of Securities, the Company, when authorized by or
pursuant to a Board Resolution, and the Trustee, at any time and from time to
time, may enter into one or more indentures supplemental hereto, in form
satisfactory to the Trustee, for any of the following purposes:

            (1) to evidence the succession of another Person to the Company and
the assumption by any such successor of the covenants of the Company herein and
in the Securities contained; or

            (2) to add to the covenants of the Company for the benefit of the
Holders of all or any series of Securities (and if such covenants are to be for
the benefit of less than all series of Securities, stating that such covenants
are expressly being included solely for the benefit of such series) or to
surrender any right or power herein conferred upon the Company; or

            (3) to add any additional Events of Default for the benefit of the
Holders of all or any series of Securities (and if such Events of Default are to
be for the benefit of less than all series of Securities, stating that such
Events of Default are expressly being included solely for the benefit of such
series); provided, however, that in respect of any such additional Events of
Default such supplemental indenture may provide for a particular period of grace
after default (which period may be shorter or longer than that allowed in the
case of other defaults) or may provide for an immediate enforcement upon such
default or may limit the remedies available to the Trustee upon such default or
may limit the right of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount
of that or those series of Securities to which such additional Events of Default
apply to waive such default; or

            (4) to change or eliminate any of the provisions of this Indenture,
provided that any such change or elimination shall become effective only when
there is no Security Outstanding of any series created prior to the execution of
such supplemental indenture which is entitled to the benefit of such provision;
or

            (6) to secure the Securities; or

                                       43
<PAGE>

            (7) to establish the form or terms of Securities of any series as
permitted by Sections 201 and 301; or

            (8) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment
hereunder by a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities of one or more
series and to add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall
be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts
hereunder by more than one Trustee; or

            (9) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision
herein which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision herein,
or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising
under this Indenture which shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this
Indenture, provided such provisions shall not adversely affect the interests of
the Holders of Securities of any series in any material respect; or

            (10) to supplement any of the provisions of this Indenture to such
extent as shall be necessary to permit or facilitate the defeasance and
discharge of any series of Securities pursuant to Sections 401, 1402 and 1403;
provided that any such action shall not adversely affect the interests of the
Holders of Securities of such series in any material respect.

      SECTION 902. Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Holders. With the
consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of all
Outstanding Securities affected by such supplemental indenture, by Act of such
Holders delivered to the Company and the Trustee, the Company, when authorized
by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, and the Trustee may enter into an
indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any
provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of
this Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of
Securities under this Indenture; provided, however, that no such supplemental
indenture shall, without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security
affected thereby:

            (1) change the Stated Maturity of the principal of (or premium, if
any, on) or any installment of principal of or interest on, any Security; or
reduce the principal amount thereof or the rate or amount of interest thereon or
any Additional Interest payable in respect thereof, or any premium payable upon
the redemption thereof, or change any obligation of the Company to pay
Additional Interest pursuant to Section 1008 (except as contemplated by Section
801(l) and permitted by Section 901(1)), or reduce the amount of the principal
of an Original Issue Discount Security that would be due and payable upon a
declaration of acceleration of the Maturity thereof pursuant to Section 502 or
the amount thereof provable in bankruptcy pursuant to Section 504, or adversely
affect any right of repayment at the option of the Holder of any Security, or
change any Place of Payment where, or the currency in which, any Security or any
premium or the interest thereon is payable, or impair the right to institute
suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the Stated Maturity
thereof (or, in the case of redemption or repayment at the option of the Holder,
on or after the Redemption Date or the Repayment Date, as the case may be), or

            (2) reduce the percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of any series, the consent of whose Holders is required for any such
supplemental indenture, or the consent of whose Holders is required for any
waiver with respect to such series (or compliance

                                       44
<PAGE>

with certain provisions of this Indenture or certain defaults hereunder and
their consequences) provided for in this Indenture, or

            (3) modify any of the provisions of this Section, Section 513 or
Section 1009, except to increase the required percentage to effect such action
or to provide that certain other provisions of this Indenture cannot be modified
or waived without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security
affected thereby.

      It shall not be necessary for any Act of Holders under this Section to
approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall
be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof.

      A supplemental indenture which changes or eliminates any covenant or other
provision of this Indenture which has expressly been included solely for the
benefit of one or more particular series of Securities, or which modifies the
rights of the Holders of Securities of such series with respect to such covenant
or other provision, shall be deemed not to affect the rights under this
Indenture of the Holders of Securities of any other series.

      SECTION 903. Execution of Supplemental Indentures. In executing, or
accepting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture permitted
by this Article or the modification thereby of the trusts created by this
Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and shall be fully
protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of
such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. The
Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental
indenture which affects the Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under
this Indenture or otherwise.

      SECTION 904. Effect of Supplemental Indentures. Upon the execution of any
supplemental indenture under this Article, this Indenture shall be modified in
accordance therewith, and such supplemental indenture shall form a part of this
Indenture for all purposes; and every Holder of Securities theretofore or
thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder shall be bound thereby.

      SECTION 905. Conformity with TIA. Every supplemental indenture executed
pursuant to this Article shall conform to the requirements of the TIA.

      SECTION 906. Reference in Securities to Supplemental Indentures.
Securities of any series authenticated and delivered after the execution of any
supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article may, and shall, if required by
the Trustee, bear a notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any matter
provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Company shall so determine,
new Securities of any series so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the
Trustee and the Company, to any such supplemental indenture may be prepared and
executed by the Company and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in
exchange for Outstanding Securities of such series.

                                   ARTICLE TEN

                                    COVENANTS

      SECTION 1001. Payment of Principal, Premium, if any, Interest and
Additional Interest. The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of the
Holders of each series of Securities that it will duly and punctually pay the
principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on and any Additional Interest
payable in respect of the Securities of that series in accordance with the terms
of such series of Securities and this Indenture. Unless otherwise specified with
respect to Securities of any series pursuant to Section 301, at the option of
the Company, all payments of principal may be paid by check to the registered
Holder of the Security or other person entitled thereto against surrender of
such Security.

      SECTION 1002. Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Company shall maintain
in a Place of Payment for a series of Securities an office or agency where
Securities of that series may be presented or surrendered for payment, where
Securities of that series may be surrendered for registration of transfer or
exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the
Securities of that series and this Indenture may be served.

      The Company may from time to time designate one or more other offices or
agencies where the Securities of one or more series may be presented or
surrendered for any or all of such purposes, and may from time to time rescind
such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission
shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office
or agency in accordance with the requirements set forth above for Securities of
any series for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the
Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location
of any such other office or agency. Unless otherwise noted with respect to any
Securities pursuant to Section 301 with respect to a series of Securities, the
Company hereby designates as a Place of Payment for each series of Securities
the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan New York City,
and initially appoints the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office as Paying Agent
and as its agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and
demands.

      SECTION 1003. Money for Securities Payments to Be Held in Trust. If the
Company shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent with respect to any series
of any Securities, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of (and
premium, if any), or interest on or Additional Interest in respect of, any of
the Securities of that series, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of
the Persons entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and premium
if any) or interest or Additional Interest so becoming due until such sums shall
be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided, and will
promptly notify the Trustee, of its action or failure so to act.

      Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents for any series
of Securities, it will, before each due date of the principal of (and premium,
if any), or interest on or Additional Interest in respect of, any Securities of
that series, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay the principal
(and premium if any) or interest or Additional Interest, so becoming due, such
sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such

                                       46
<PAGE>

principal, premium or interest or Additional Interest and (unless such Paying
Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of its action
or failure so to act.

      The Company will cause each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to execute
and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree
with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying
Agent will

            (1) hold all sums held by it for the payment of principal of (and
premium, if any) or interest on Securities or Additional Interest in trust for
the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to
such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided;

            (2) give the Trustee notice of any default by the Company (or any
other obligor upon the Securities) in the making of any such payment of
principal (and premium, if any) or interest or Additional Interest; and

            (3) at any time during the continuance of any such default upon the
written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in
trust by such Paying Agent.

      The Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction
and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Company
Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by
the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the
same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such
Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such
Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such
sums.

      Except as otherwise provided in the Securities of any series, any money
deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in
trust for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on,
or any Additional Interest in respect of, any Security of any series and
remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal (and premium, if any),
interest or Additional Interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the
Company upon Company Request or (if then held by the Company) shall be
discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as
an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment of such
principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on, or any Additional Interest in
respect of, any Security, without interest thereon, and all liability of the
Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability
of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however,
that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such
repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in an
Authorized Newspaper, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a
date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of
such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be
repaid to the Company.

      SECTION 1004. Existence. Subject to Article Eight, the Company will do or
cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and
effect its existence as a corporation, rights (charter and statutory) and
franchises; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to
preserve any right or franchise if the Board of Directors shall determine

                                       47
<PAGE>

that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the
business of the Company.

      SECTION 1005. Maintenance of Properties. The Company will cause all of its
material properties used or useful in the conduct of its business to be
maintained and kept in good condition, repair and working order (reasonable wear
and tear excepted) and supplied with all necessary equipment and will cause to
be made all necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and
improvements thereof, all as in the judgment of the Company may be necessary so
that the business carried on in connection therewith may be properly and
advantageously conducted at all times.

      SECTION 1006. Payment of Taxes and Other Claims. The Company will pay or
discharge or cause to be paid or discharged, before the same shall become
delinquent, (1) all taxes, assessments and governmental charges levied or
imposed upon it or upon the income, profits or property of the Company, and (2)
all lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies, which, if unpaid, might by
law become a material lien upon the property of the Company; provided, however,
that the Company shall not be required to pay or discharge or cause to be paid
or discharged any such tax, assessment, charge or claim whose amount,
applicability or validity is being contested in good faith.

      SECTION 1007. Statement as to Compliance. The Company will deliver to the
Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, a brief certificate
from the principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal
accounting officer as to his or her knowledge of the Company's compliance with
all conditions and covenants under this Indenture and, in the event of any
noncompliance, specifying such noncompliance and the nature and status thereof.
For purposes of this Section 1007, such compliance shall be determined without
regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice under this Indenture.

      SECTION 1008. Additional Interest. If any Securities of a series provide
for the payment of Additional Interest, the Company will pay to the Holder of
any Security of such series Additional Interest as may be specified as
contemplated by Section 301. Whenever in this Indenture there is mentioned, in
any context except in the case of Section 502(1), the payment of the principal
of or any premium or interest on, or in respect of, any Security of any series,
such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of Additional
Interest provided by the terms of such series established pursuant to Section
301 to the extent that, in such context, Additional Interest is, was or would be
payable in respect thereof pursuant to such terms and express mention of the
payment of Additional Interest (if applicable) in any provisions hereof shall
not be construed as excluding Additional Interest in those provisions hereof
where such express mention is not made.

      SECTION 1009. Waiver of Certain Covenants. The Company may omit in any
particular instance to comply with any term, provision or condition set forth in
Sections 1004 to 1006, inclusive, if before or after the time for such
compliance the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of all
outstanding Securities of such series, by Act of such Holders, either waive such
compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such covenant or
condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such covenant or
condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall
become effective, the obligations of the

                                       48
<PAGE>

Company and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such term, provision or
condition shall remain in full force and effect.

      SECTION 1010. Covenants Regarding Trust. For so long as the Trust
Preferred Securities remain outstanding, the Company covenants (i) to directly
or indirectly maintain 100% of ownership of the Trust Common Securities of the
Securities Trust; provided, however, that any permitted successor of the Company
hereunder may succeed to the Company's ownership of such Trust Common
Securities, and (ii) to use its reasonable efforts to cause the Securities Trust
(a) to remain a statutory business trust, except in connection with the
distribution of Subordinated Debentures to the holders of Trust Preferred
Securities in liquidation of the Securities Trust, the redemption of all of the
Trust Preferred Securities of the Securities Trust, or certain mergers,
consolidations or amalgamations, each as permitted under the Trust Agreement,
and (b) to otherwise continue to be classified as a grantor trust for United
States federal income tax purposes.

                                 ARTICLE ELEVEN

                            REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES

      SECTION 1101. Applicability of Article. Securities of any series which are
redeemable before their Stated Maturity shall be redeemable in accordance with
their terms and (except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301
for Securities of any series) in accordance with this Article.

      SECTION 1102. Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee. The election of the
Company to redeem any Securities shall be evidenced by or pursuant to a Board
Resolution. In the case of any redemption at the election of the Company of less
than all of the Securities of any series, the Company shall, at least 30 days
prior to the giving of the notice of redemption in Section 1104 (unless a
shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such
Redemption Date and of the principal amount of Securities of such series to be
redeemed. In the case of any redemption of Securities prior to the expiration of
any restriction on such redemption provided in the terms of such Securities or
elsewhere in this Indenture, the Company shall furnish the Trustee with an
Officers' Certificate evidencing compliance with such restriction.

      SECTION 1103. Selection by Trustee of Securities to Be Redeemed. If less
than all the Securities of any series are to be redeemed, the particular
Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the
Redemption Date by the Trustee, from the Outstanding Securities of such series
issued not previously called for redemption, by such method as the Trustee shall
deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption
of portions (equal to the minimum authorized denomination for Securities of that
series or any integral multiple thereof) of the principal amount of Securities
of such series of a denomination larger than the minimum authorized denomination
for Securities of that series.

      The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company and the Security Registrar
(if other than itself) in writing of the Securities selected for redemption and,
in the case of any Securities selected for partial redemption, the principal
amount thereof to be redeemed.

                                       49
<PAGE>

      For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires,
all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities shall relate, in the
case of any security redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of
the principal amount of such Security which has been or is to be redeemed.

      SECTION 1104. Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption shall be given in
the manner provided in Section 106, not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days
prior to the Redemption Date, unless a shorter period is specified by the terms
of such series established pursuant to Section 301, to each Holder of Securities
to be redeemed, but failure to give such notice in the manner herein provided to
the Holder of any Security designated for redemption as a whole or in part, or
any defect in the notice to any such Holder, shall not affect the validity of
the proceedings for the redemption of any other such Security or portion
thereof.

      Any notice that is mailed to the Holders of Securities in the manner
herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether
or not the Holder receives the notice.

      All notices of redemption shall state:

            (1) the Redemption Date,

            (2) the Redemption Price, accrued interest to the Redemption Date
payable as provided in Section 1106, if any, and Additional Interest, if any,

            (3) if less than all Outstanding Securities of any series are to be
redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the
principal amount) of the particular Security or Securities to be redeemed,

            (4) in case any Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice
which relates to such Security shall state that on and after the Redemption
Date, upon surrender of such Security, the holder will receive, without a
charge, a new Security or Securities of authorized denominations for the
principal amount thereof remaining unredeemed,

            (5) that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price and accrued
interest to the Redemption Date payable as provided in Section 1106, if any,
will become due and payable upon each such Security, or the portion thereof, to
be redeemed and if applicable, that interest thereon shall cease to accrue on
and after said date,

            (6) the Place or Places of Payment where such Securities are to be
surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest, if any,

            (7) that the redemption is for a sinking fund, if such is the case,
and

            (8) the CUSIP number of such Security, if any

      Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed shall be given by the
Company or, at the Company's request, by the Trustee in the name and at the
expense of the Company.

                                       50
<PAGE>

      SECTION 1105. Deposit of Redemption Price. On or before any Redemption
Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if
the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, which it may not do in the case
of a sinking fund payment under Article Twelve, segregate and hold in trust as
provided in section 1003) an amount sufficient to pay on the Redemption Date the
Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest
Payment Date) accrued interest on, all the Securities or portions thereof which
are to be redeemed on that date.

      SECTION 1106. Securities Payable on Redemption Date. Notice of redemption
having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the
Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein
specified (together with accrued interest, if any, to the Redemption Date), and
from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the
Redemption Price and accrued interest) such Securities shall, if the same were
interest-bearing, cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Security
for redemption in accordance with such notice, such Security shall be paid by
the Company at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest, if any, to
the Redemption Date; provided, however, that installments of interest on
Securities whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be
payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor
Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Record
Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section.

      If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender
thereof for redemption, the principal (and premium, if any) shall, until paid,
bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate borne by the Security.

      SECTION 1107. Securities Redeemed in Part. Any Security which is to be
redeemed only in part (pursuant to the provisions of this Article or of Article
Twelve) shall be surrendered at a Place of Payment therefor (with, if the
Company or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument
of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed
by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing) and the
Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the
Holder of such Security without service charge a new Security or Securities of
the same series, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder in
aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion
of the principal of the Security so surrendered.

                                 ARTICLE TWELVE

                                  SINKING FUNDS

      SECTION 1201. Applicability of Article. The provisions of this Article
shall be applicable to any sinking fund for the retirement of Securities of a
series except as otherwise specified as contemplated by Section 301 for
Securities of such series.

      The minimum amount of an sinking fund payment provided for by the terms of
Securities of any series is herein referred to as a "mandatory sinking fund
payment," and any payment in excess of such minimum amount provided for by the
terms of such Securities of any series is herein referred to as an "optional
sinking fund payment". If provided for by the terms of any

                                       51
<PAGE>

Securities of any series, the cash amount of any mandatory sinking fund payment
may be subject to reduction as provided in Section 1202. Each sinking fund
payment shall be applied to the redemption of Securities of any series as
provided for by the terms of the Securities of such series.

      SECTION 1202. Satisfaction of Sinking Fund Payments with Securities. The
Company may, in satisfaction of all or any part of any mandatory sinking fund
payment with respect to the Securities of a series, (1) deliver Outstanding
Securities of such series (other than any previously called for redemption) and
(2) apply as a credit Securities of such series which have been redeemed either
at the election of the Company pursuant to the terms of such Securities or
through the application of permitted optional sinking fund payments pursuant to
the terms of such Securities, as provided for by the terms of such Securities,
or which have otherwise been acquired by the Company; provided that such
Securities so delivered or applied as a credit have not been previously so
credited. Such Securities shall be received and credited for such purpose by the
Trustee at the applicable Redemption Price specified in such Securities for
redemption through operation of the sinking fund and the amount of such
mandatory sinking fund payment shall be reduced accordingly.

      SECTION 1203. Redemption of Securities for Sinking Fund. Not less than 60
days prior to each sinking fund payment date for Securities of any series, the
Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate specifying the
amount of the next ensuing mandatory sinking fund payment for that series
pursuant to the terms of that series, the portion thereof, if any, which is to
be satisfied by payment of cash and the portion thereof, if any, which is to be
satisfied by delivering and crediting Securities of that series pursuant to
Section 1202, and the optional amount, if any, to be added in cash to the next
ensuing mandatory sinking fund payment, and will also deliver to the Trustee any
Securities to be so delivered and credited. If such Officers' Certificate shall
specify an optional amount to be added in cash to the next ensuing mandatory
sinking fund payment, the Trust shall thereupon be obligated to pay the amount
therein specified. Not less than 30 days before each such sinking fund payment
date the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed upon such sinking
fund payment date in the manner specified in Section 1103 and cause notice of
the redemption thereof to be given in the name of and at the expense of the
Company in the manner provided in Section 1104. Such notice having been duly
given, the redemption of such Securities shall be made upon the terms and in the
manner stated in Sections 1106 and 1107.

                                ARTICLE THIRTEEN

                       REPAYMENT AT THE OPTION OF HOLDERS

      SECTION 1301. Applicability of Article. Repayment of Securities of any
series before their Stated Maturity at the option of Holders thereof shall be
made in accordance with the terms of such Securities, if any, and (except as
otherwise specified by the terms of such series established pursuant to Section
301) in accordance with this Article.

      SECTION 1302. Repayment of Securities. Securities of any series subject to
repayment in whole or in part at the option of the Holders thereof will, unless
otherwise provided in the terms of such Securities, be repaid at a price equal
to the principal amount thereof, together with

                                       52
<PAGE>

interest, if any, thereon accrued to the Repayment Date specified in or pursuant
to the terms of such Securities. The Company covenants that on or before the
Repayment Date it will deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if
the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as
provided in Section 1003) an amount sufficient to pay the principal (or, if so
provided by the terms of the Securities of any series, a percentage of the
principal) of, and (except if the Repayment Date shall be an Interest Payment
Date) accrued interest on, all the Securities or portions thereof, as the case
may be, to be repaid on such date.

      SECTION 1303. Exercise of Option. Securities of any series subject to
repayment at the option of the Holders thereof will contain an "Option to Elect
Repayment" form on the reverse of such Securities. In order for any Security to
be repaid at the option of the Holder, the Trustee must receive at the Place of
Payment therefor specified in the terms of such Security (or at such other place
or places of which the Company shall from time to time notify the Holders of
such Securities) not earlier than 60 days nor later than 30 days prior to the
Repayment Date (1) the Security so providing for such repayment together with
the "Option to Elect Repayment" form on the reverse thereof duly completed by
the Holder (or by the Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing) or (2) a
telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or a letter from a member of a national
securities exchange, or the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
("NASD"), or a commercial bank or trust company in the United States setting
forth the name of the Holder of the security, the principal amount of the
Security, the principal amount of the Security to be repaid, the CUSIP number,
if any, or a description of the tenor and terms of the Security, a statement
that the option to elect repayment is being exercised thereby and a guarantee
that the Security to be repaid, together with the duly completed form entitled
"Option to Elect Repayment" on the reverse of the Security, will be received by
the Trustee not later than the fifth Business Day after the date of such
telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter; provided, however, that such
telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter shall only be effective if
such Security and form duly completed are received by the Trustee by such fifth
Business Day. If less than the entire principal amount of such Security is to be
repaid in accordance with the terms of such Security, the principal amount of
such Security to be repaid, in increments of the minimum denomination for
Securities of such series, and the denomination or denominations of the Security
or Securities to be issued to the Holder for the portion of the principal amount
of such Security surrendered that is not to be repaid, must be specified. The
principal amount of any Security providing for repayment at the option of the
Holder thereof may not be repaid in part if, following such repayment, the
unpaid principal amount of such Security would be less than the minimum
authorized denomination of Securities of the series of which such Security to be
repaid is a part. Except as otherwise may be provided by the terms of any
Security providing for repayment at the option of the Holder thereof, exercise
of the repayment option by the Holder shall be irrevocable unless waived by the
Company.

      SECTION 1304. When Securities Presented for Repayment Become Due and
Payable. If Securities of any series providing for repayment at the option of
the Holders thereof shall have been surrendered as provided in this Article and
as provided by or pursuant to the terms of such Securities, such Securities or
the portions thereof, as the case may be, to be repaid shall become due and
payable and shall be paid by the Company on the Repayment Date therein
specified, and on and after such Repayment Date (unless the Company shall
default in the payment of such Securities on such Repayment Date) such
Securities shall, if the same were interest-bearing, cease to bear interest.
Upon surrender of any such Security or repayment in accordance with

                                       53
<PAGE>

such provisions, the principal amount of such Security so to be repaid shall be
paid by the Company, together with accrued interest, if any, to the Repayment
Date; provided, however, that installments of interest, if any, whose Stated
Maturity is on or prior to the Repayment Date shall be payable (but without
interest thereon, unless the Company shall default in the payment thereof) to
the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities registered
as such at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates according to their
terms and the provisions of Section 307.

      If the principal amount of any Security surrendered for repayment shall
not be so repaid upon surrender thereof, such principal amount (together with
interest, if any, thereon accrued to such Repayment Date) shall, until paid,
bear interest from the Repayment Date at the rate of interest or Yield to
Maturity (in the case of Original Issue Discount Securities) set forth in such
Security.

      SECTION 1305. Securities Repaid in Part. Upon surrender of any Security
which is to be repaid in part only, the Company shall execute and the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security, without service
charge and at the expense of the Company, a new Security or Securities of the
same series, of any authorized denomination specified by the Holder, in an
aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the portion of the
principal of such Security so surrendered which is not to be repaid.

                                ARTICLE FOURTEEN

                       DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

      SECTION 1401. Applicability of Article; Company's Option to Effect
Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. If, pursuant to Section 301, provision is
made for either or both of (a) defeasance of the Securities of or within a
series under Section 1402 or (b) covenant defeasance of the Securities of or
within a series under Section 1403, then the provisions of such Section or
Sections, as the case may be, together with the other provisions of this Article
(with such modifications thereto as, may be specified pursuant to Section 301
with respect to any Securities) shall be applicable to such Securities, and the
Company may at its option by Board Resolution, at any time, with respect to such
Securities, elect to have Section 1402 (if applicable) or Section 1403 (if
applicable) be applied to such Outstanding Securities upon compliance with the
conditions set forth below in this Article.

      SECTION 1402. Defeasance and Discharge. Upon the Company's exercise of the
above option applicable to this Section with respect to any Securities of or
within a series, the Company shall be deemed to have been discharged from its
obligations with respect to such Outstanding Securities on the date the
conditions set forth in Section 1404 are satisfied (hereinafter, "defeasance").
For this purpose, such defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have
paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by such Outstanding
Securities, which shall thereafter be deemed to be "Outstanding" only for the
purposes of Section 1405 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in
clauses (A) and (B) below, and to have satisfied all of its other obligations
under such Securities and this Indenture insofar as such Securities are
concerned (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper
instruments acknowledging the same) except for the following which shall survive
until otherwise terminated

                                       54
<PAGE>

or discharged hereunder: (A) the rights of Holders of such Outstanding
Securities to receive, solely from the trust fund described in Section 1404 and
as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of
(and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on such Securities when such
payments are due, (B) the Company's obligations with respect to such Securities
under Sections 305, 306, 1002 and 1003 and with respect to the payment of
Additional Interest, if any, on such Securities as contemplated by Section 1008,
(C) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder
and (D) this Article. Subject to compliance with this Article Fourteen, the
Company may exercise its option under this Section notwithstanding the prior
exercise of its option under Section 1403 with respect to such Securities.

      SECTION 1403. Covenant Defeasance. Upon the Company's exercise of the
above option applicable to this Section with respect to any Securities of or
within a series, the Company shall be released from its obligations under
Sections 1004 to 1006, inclusive, and, if specified pursuant to Section 301, its
obligations under any other covenant, with respect to such Outstanding
Securities on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 1404 are
satisfied (hereinafter, "covenant defeasance"), and such Securities shall
thereafter be deemed to be not "Outstanding" for the purposes of any direction,
waiver, consent or declaration or Act of Holders (and the consequences of any
thereof) in connection with Sections 1004 to 1006, inclusive, or such other
covenant, but shall continue to be deemed "Outstanding" for all other purposes
hereunder. For this purpose, such covenant defeasance means that, with respect
to such Outstanding Securities, the Company may omit to comply with and shall
have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in
any such Section or such other covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by
reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such Section or such other
covenant or by reason of reference in any such Section or such other covenant to
any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply
shall not constitute a default or an Event of Default under Section 501(4) or
501(9) or otherwise, as the case may be, but, except as specified above, the
remainder of this Indenture and such Securities shall be unaffected thereby.

      SECTION 1404. Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The
following shall be the conditions to application of Section 1402 or Section 1403
to any Outstanding Securities of or within a series:

            (a) The Company shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be
deposited with the Trustee (or another trustee satisfying the requirements of
Section 607 who shall agree to comply with the provisions of this Article
Fourteen applicable to it) as trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the
following payments, specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely
to, the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, (1) an amount of money, or
(2) Government Obligations applicable to such Securities which through the
scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance
with their terms will provide, not later than the due date of any payment of
principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on such Securities,
money in an amount, or (3) a combination thereof, in any case, in an amount,
sufficient, without consideration of any reinvestment of such principal and
interest, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public
accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the
Trustee, to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee (or
other qualifying trustee) to pay and discharge, (1) the principal of (and
premium,

                                       55
<PAGE>

if any) and interest, if any, on such Outstanding Securities on the Stated
Maturity of such principal or installment of principal or interest and (ii) any
mandatory sinking fund payments or analogous payments applicable to such
Outstanding Securities on the day on which such payments are due and payable in
accordance with the terms of this Indenture and of such Securities.

            (b) Such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not result in a
breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, this Indenture or any
other material agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by
which it is bound.

            (c) No Event of Default or event which with notice or lapse of time
or both would become an Event of Default with respect to such Securities shall
have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or, insofar as
Sections 501(6) and 501(7) are concerned, at any time during the period ending
on the 91st day after the date of such deposit (it being understood that this
condition shall not be deemed satisfied until the expiration of such period).

            (d) In the case of an election under Section 1402, the Company shall
have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that (i) the Company
has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service
a ruling, or (ii) since the date of execution of this Indenture, there has been
a change in the applicable Federal income tax law, in either case to the effect
that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the Holders of such
Outstanding Securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal
income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance and will be subject to
Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times
as would have been the case if such defeasance had not occurred.

            (e) In the case of an election under Section 1403, the Company shall
have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the
Holders of such Outstanding Securities will not recognize income, gain or loss
for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such covenant defeasance and will
be subject to Federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at
the same times as would have been the case if such covenant defeasance had not
occurred.

            (f) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers'
Certificate and an opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions
precedent to the defeasance under Section 1402 or the covenant defeasance under
Section 1403 (as the case may be) have been complied with and an Opinion of
Counsel to the effect that either (i) as a result of a deposit pursuant to
subsection (a) above and the related exercise of the Company's option under
Section 1402 or Section 1403 (as the case may be), registration is not required
under the Investment Trust Act of 1940, as amended, by the Company, with respect
to the trust funds representing such deposit or by the Trustee for such trust
funds or (ii) all necessary registrations under such Act have been effected.

            (g) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section, such
defeasance or covenant defeasance shall be effected in compliance with any
additional or substitute terms, conditions or limitations which may be imposed
on the Company in connection therewith pursuant to Section 301.

      SECTION 1405. Deposited Money and Government Obligations to Be Held in
Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. Subject to the provisions of the last
paragraph of Section 1003, all money and Government Obligations (or other
property as may be provided pursuant to Section 301) (including the proceeds
thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively
for purposes of this Section 1405, the "Trustee") pursuant to Section 1404 in
respect of any Outstanding Securities of any series shall be held in trust and
applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Securities and
this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent
(including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may
determine, to the Holders of such Securities of all sums due and to become due
thereon in respect of principal (and premium, if any) and interest and
Additional Interest, if any, but such money need not be segregated from other
funds except to the extent required by law.

      The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or
other charge imposed on or assessed against the Government Obligations deposited
pursuant to Section 1404 or the principal and interest received in respect
thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the
account of the Holders of such Outstanding Securities.

      Anything in this Article to the contrary notwithstanding, subject to
Section 606, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time
upon Company Request any money or Government Obligations (or other property and
any proceeds therefrom) held by it as provided in Section 1404 which, in the
opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants
expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in
excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to
effect a defeasance or covenant defeasance, as applicable, in accordance with
this Article.

                                 ARTICLE FIFTEEN

                                  SUBORDINATION

      SECTION 1501. Securities Subordinate to Senior Indebtedness. The Company
covenants and agrees, and each Holder of a Security, by his acceptance thereof,
likewise covenants and agrees, that, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter
set forth in this Article (subject to Article Four), the payment of the
principal of, premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest, if
any) on each and all of the Securities are hereby expressly made subordinate and
subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full in cash of all Senior
Indebtedness.

      SECTION 1502. Payment of Proceeds Upon Dissolution, Etc. Upon any payment
or distribution of assets of the Company upon any liquidation, dissolution,
winding-up, reorganization, assignment for the benefit of creditors, marshalling
of assets or liabilities or any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceedings of
the Company (each such event, if any, referred to as a "Proceeding"), the
holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled to receive payment in full of
all amounts due on or to become due on or in respect of all Senior Indebtedness
(including any interest accruing thereon after the commencement of any such
Proceeding, whether or not allowed as a claim against the Company in such
Proceeding), before the Holders of the Securities are entitled to receive any
payment or distribution (excluding any payment described in

                                       57
<PAGE>

Section 1509) on account of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest
(including Additional Interest, if any) on the Securities or on account of any
purchase, redemption or other acquisition of Securities by the Company (all such
payments, distributions, purchases, redemptions and acquisitions, whether or not
in connection with a Proceeding, herein referred to, individually and
collectively, as a "Payment").

      In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment or
distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash,
property or securities, prohibited by the foregoing shall be received by the
Trustee or the Holders of the Securities before all Senior Indebtedness is paid
in full, or provision is made for such payment in money in accordance with its
terms, such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for the benefit of
and shall be paid over or delivered to the holders of Senior Indebtedness or to
the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any instruments
evidencing any such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their
respective interests may appear, as calculated by the Company, for application
to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid to the extent
necessary to pay all Senior Indebtedness in full in accordance with its terms,
after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the
holders of such Senior Indebtedness.

      For purposes of this Article, "assets of the Company" shall not be deemed
to include shares of stock of the Company as reorganized or readjusted, or
securities of the Company or any other corporation provided for by a plan of
reorganization or readjustment, the payment of which is subordinated at least to
the extent provided in this Article with respect to the Securities to the
payment of all Senior Indebtedness that may at the time be outstanding,
provided, however, that (i) Senior Indebtedness is assumed by the new
corporation, if any, resulting from any such reorganization or readjustment, and
(ii) the rights of the holders of the Senior Indebtedness are not, without the
consent of such holders, altered by such reorganization or readjustment. The
consolidation of the Company with, or the merger of the Company into, another
corporation or the liquidation or dissolution of the Company following the
conveyance or transfer of its property as an entirety, or substantially as an
entirety, to another corporation upon the terms and conditions provided for in
Article Eight shall not be deemed a dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or
reorganization for the purposes of this Section 1502 if such other corporation
shall, as a part of such consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer, comply
with the conditions stated in Article Eight. Nothing in Section 1503 or in this
Section 1502 shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or
pursuant to Section 606.

      SECTION 1503. No Payment When Senior Indebtedness in Default. No payment
of any principal, including redemption payments, if any, premium, if any, or
interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on the Securities shall be made
if

            (i) any Senior Indebtedness is not paid when due whether at the
stated maturity of such payment or by call for redemption and any applicable
grace period with respect to such default has ended, with such default remaining
uncured and such default has not been waived or otherwise ceased to exist;

            (ii) any other default occurs and is continuing in respect of any
Senior Indebtedness that permits the maturity of such Senior Indebtedness to be
accelerated, whether or not such maturity has been accelerated; or

                                       58
<PAGE>

            (iii) notice has been given of the exercise of an option to require
repayment, mandatory payment or prepayment of Senior Indebtedness.

      In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall make
any Payment to the Trustee or any Holder prohibited by the foregoing provisions
of this Section, then in such event such event such Payment shall be held in
trust and paid over and delivered forthwith to the holders of the Senior
Indebtedness.

      The provisions of this Section shall not apply to any Payment with respect
to which Section 1502 would be applicable.

      SECTION 1504. Payment Permitted If No Default. Nothing contained in this
Article or elsewhere in this Indenture or in any of the Securities shall prevent
the Company, at any time except during the pendency of any Proceeding referred
to in Section 1502 or under the conditions described in Section 1503, from
making Payments. Nothing in this Article shall have any effect on the right of
the Holders or the Trustee to accelerate the maturity of the Securities upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default, but, in that event, no payment may be made in
violation of the provisions of this Article with respect to the Securities. If
payment of the Securities is accelerated because of an Event of Default, the
Company shall promptly notify the holders of the Senior Indebtedness (or their
representatives) of such acceleration.

      SECTION 1505. Subrogation to Rights of Holders of Senior Indebtedness.
Upon payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, or provision for payment, the
Holders of the Securities shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders of
such Senior Indebtedness to receive payments and distributions of cash, property
and securities applicable to the Senior Indebtedness until the principal of,
premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on the
Securities shall be paid in full. For purposes of such subrogation, no payments
or distributions to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness of any cash, property
or securities to which the Holders of the Securities or the Trustee would be
entitled except for the provisions of this Article, and no payments pursuant to
the provisions of this Article to the holders of Senior Indebtedness by Holders
of the Securities or the Trustee, shall, as among the Company, its creditors
other than holders of Senior Indebtedness and the Holders of Securities, be
deemed to be a payment or distribution by the Company to or on account of the
Senior Indebtedness.

      SECTION 1506. Provisions Solely to Define Relative Rights. The provisions
of this Article are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the
relative rights of the Holders on the one hand and the holders of Senior
Indebtedness on the other hand. Nothing contained in this Article or elsewhere
in this Indenture or in the Securities is intended to or shall (a) impair, as
among the Company, its creditors other than holders of Senior Indebtedness and
the Holders of the Securities, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute
and unconditional (and which, subject to the rights under this Article of the
holders of Senior Indebtedness, is intended to rank equally with all other
general obligations of the Company), to pay to the Holders of the Securities the
principal of, premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest, if
any) on the Securities as and when the same shall become due and payable in
accordance with their terms; or (b) affect the relative rights against the
Company of the Holders of the Securities and creditors of the Company other than
the holders of Senior Indebtedness; or (c) prevent the Trustee or the Holder of
any Security from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by

                                       59
<PAGE>

applicable law upon default under this Indenture, subject to the rights, if any,
under this Article of the holders of Senior Indebtedness to receive cash,
property and securities otherwise payable or deliverable to the Trustee or such
Holder or, under the conditions specified in Section 1603, to prevent any
payment prohibited by such Section or enforce their rights pursuant to the
penultimate paragraph in Section 1503.

      SECTION 1507. Trustee to Effectuate Subordination. Each Holder of a
Security by his acceptance thereof authorizes and directs the Trustee on his
behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the
subordination provided in this Article and appoints the Trustee his
attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes, including, in the event of any
dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization of the Company, whether
in bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership proceedings, or otherwise, the timely
filing of a claim for the unpaid balance of the indebtedness of the Company
owing to such Holder in the form required in such proceedings and the causing of
such claim to be approved.

      SECTION 1508. No Waiver of Subordination Provisions. No right of any
present or future holder of any Senior Indebtedness to enforce the subordination
provisions provided herein shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or
impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Company or by any act
or any failure to act, in good faith, by any such holder, or by any
noncompliance by the Company with the terms, provisions and covenants of this
Indenture, regardless of any knowledge thereof any such holder may have to be or
be otherwise charged with.

      Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph, the
holders of Senior Indebtedness may, at any time and from time to time, without
the consent of or notice to the Trustee or the Holders of the Securities,
without incurring responsibility to the Holders of the Securities and without
impairing or releasing the subordination provided in this Article or the
obligations hereunder of the Holders of the Securities to the holders of Senior
Indebtedness, do any one or more of the following: i) change the manner, place
or terms of payment or extend the time for payment of, or renew or alter, Senior
Indebtedness, or otherwise amend or supplement in any manner Senior Indebtedness
or any instrument evidencing the same or any agreement under which Senior
Indebtedness is outstanding; (ii) permit the Company to borrow, repay and then
reborrow any or all of the Senior Indebtedness; (iii) sell, exchange, release or
otherwise deal with any property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing Senior
Indebtedness; (iv) release any Person liable in any manner for the collection of
Senior Indebtedness; (v) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against
the Company and any other Person; or (vi) apply any sums received by them to
Senior Indebtedness.

      SECTION 1509. Trust Moneys Not Subordinated. Notwithstanding anything
contained herein to the contrary, payments from money held in trust by the
Trustee under Article Four for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any,
and interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on any series of Securities
shall not be subordinated to the prior payment of any Senior Indebtedness or
subject to the restrictions set forth in this Article and no Holder of such
Securities nor the Trustee shall be obligated to pay over such amount to the
Company, any holder of Senior Indebtedness (or a designated representative of
such holder) or any other creditor of the Company.

                                       60
<PAGE>

      SECTION 1510. Notice to the Trustee. The Company shall give prompt written
notice to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee of any fact known to the Company
that would prohibit the making of any payment of monies to or by the Trustee in
respect of the Securities pursuant to the provisions of this Article.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article or any other provision of this
Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of
any facts that would prohibit the making of any payment of monies to or by the
Trustee in respect of the Securities pursuant to the provisions of this Article
unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received
written notice thereof at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee from the
Company or a holder or holders of Senior Indebtedness or from any trustee
therefor; and before the receipt of any such written notice, the Trustee,
subject to the provisions of Section 601, shall be entitled in all respects to
assume that no such facts exist; provided, however, that if the Trustee shall
not have received the notice provided for in this Section 1510 at least two
Business Days prior to the date upon which, by the terms hereof, any money may
become payable for any purpose (including, without limitation, the payment of
the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Security), then,
anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall
have full power and authority to receive such money and to apply the same to the
purposes for which they were received, and shall not be affected by any notice
to the contrary that may be received by it within two Business Days prior to
such date.

      The Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 601, shall be entitled
to rely on the delivery to it of a written notice by a Person representing
himself to be holder of Senior Indebtedness (or a trustee on behalf of such
holder) to establish that such notice has been given by a holder of Senior
Indebtedness or a trustee on behalf of any such holder or holders. In the event
that the Trustee determines in good faith that further evidence is required with
respect to the right of any Person as a holder of Senior Indebtedness to
participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Article, the Trustee
may request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of
the Trustee as to the amount of Senior Indebtedness held by such Person, the
extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or
distribution and any other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under
this Article, and if such evidence is not furnished the Trustee may defer any
payment to such person pending judicial determination as to the right of such
person to receive such payment.

      SECTION 1511. Reliance on Judicial Order or Certificate of Liquidating
Agent. Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in
this Article, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 601, and the
Holders of the Securities shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree
entered by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such Proceeding is
pending, or a certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, liquidating
trustee, custodian, assignee for the benefit of creditors, agent or other Person
making such payment or distribution, delivered to the Trustee or to the Holders
of Securities, for the purpose of ascertaining the Person entitled to
participate in such payment or distribution, the holders of the Senior
Indebtedness, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid
or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article,
provided that the foregoing shall apply only if such court has been apprised of
the provisions of this Article.

      SECTION 1512. Trustee Not Fiduciary for Holders of Senior Indebtedness.
Subject to the provisions of Section 601, the Trustee shall not be deemed to owe
any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Indebtedness and shall not be liable
to any such holders if it shall in good faith

                                       61
<PAGE>

mistakenly pay over or distribute to Holders of Securities or to the Company or
to any other Person cash, property or securities to which any holders of Senior
Indebtedness shall be entitled by virtue of this Article or otherwise.

      SECTION 1513. Rights of Trustee as Holder of Senior Indebtedness;
Preservation of Trustee's Rights. The Trustee in its individual capacity shall
be entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article with respect to any
Senior Indebtedness which may at any time be held by it, to the same extent as
any other holder of Senior Indebtedness, and nothing in this Indenture shall
deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder.

      Nothing in this Article shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the
Trustee or pursuant to Section 606.

      SECTION 1514. Article Applicable to Paying Agents. In case at any time any
Paying Agent other than the Trustee (or the Company or an Affiliate of the
Company) shall have been appointed by the Company and be then acting hereunder,
the term "Trustee" as used in this Article shall in such case (unless the
context otherwise required) be construed as extending to and including such
Paying Agent within its meaning as fully for all intents and purposes as if such
Paying Agent were named in this Article in addition to or in place of the
Trustee.

      SECTION 1515. Reliance by Holders of Senior Indebtedness on Subordination
Provisions. Each Holder by accepting a Security acknowledges and agrees that the
foregoing subordination provisions are, and are intended to be, an inducement
and a consideration to each holder of any Senior Indebtedness, whether such
Senior Indebtedness was created or acquired before or after the issuance of the
Securities, to acquire and continue to hold, or to continue to hold, such Senior
Indebtedness and such holder of Senior Indebtedness shall be deemed conclusively
to have relied on such subordination provisions in acquiring and continuing to
hold, or to continue to hold, such Senior Indebtedness.

                                 ARTICLE SIXTEEN

                            MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

      SECTION 1601. Assignment; Binding Effect. The Company shall have the right
at all times to assign any of its rights or obligations under this Indenture to
a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, provided that, in
the event of any such assignment, the Company shall remain primarily liable for
the performance of all such obligations. This Indenture may also be assigned by
the Company in connection with a transaction described in Article Eight. This
Indenture shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company, the
Trustee, the Holders, any Security Registrar, Paying Agent, and Authenticating
Agent and, to the extent specifically set forth herein, the holders of Senior
Indebtedness and their respective successors and assigns. The provisions of
clause (2) of Section 508 are for the benefit of the holders of the series of
Trust Securities referred to therein and, prior to the dissolution of the
related Securities Trust, may be enforced by such holders. A holder of a Trust
Security shall not have the right, as such a holder, to enforce any other
provision of this Indenture.

                                       62

      SECTION 1602. Additional Interest. Whenever there is mentioned in this
Indenture, in any context, the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or
interest on, or in respect of, any Security of any series such mention shall be
deemed to include mention of the payment of Additional Interest provided for by
the terms of such series of Securities to the extent that, in such context,
Additional Interest is, was or would be payable in respect thereof pursuant to
such terms, and express mention of the payment of Additional Interest in any
provisions hereof shall not be construed as excluding Additional Interest in
those provisions hereof where such express mention is not made.

      SECTION 1603. Counterparts. This Indenture may be executed in any number
of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original,
but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same
Indenture.

                                  SCHEDULE 301

                FORM OF OPTION TO EXTEND INTEREST PAYMENT PERIOD

      The Company has the right at any time and from time to time to extend the
interest payment period of the Series __ Subordinated Debentures for up to
twenty (20) consecutive quarters (each, an "Extension Period"), during which
Extension Period the Company shall have the right to make partial payments of
interest on any Interest Payment Date; provided, however, that no such Extension
Period may extend beyond the Stated Maturity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Company has no right to extend its obligation to pay such amounts as are defined
in the definition of Additional Interest. Prior to the termination of any such
Extension Period, the Company may further extend the interest payment period;
provided that such Extension Period, together with all such previous and further
extensions of that Extension Period, shall not exceed twenty (20) consecutive
quarters. Upon the termination of any such Extension Period and upon the payment
of all accrued and unpaid interest and any Additional Interest then due, the
Company may select a new Extension Period, subject to the above limitations and
requirements.

      Upon the termination of any Extension Period, which termination shall be
on an Interest Payment Date, the Company shall pay all Deferred Interest on the
next succeeding Interest Payment Date to the Person or Persons in whose name the
Series __ Subordinated Debentures are registered on the Regular Record Date for
such Interest Payment Date; provided that Deferred Interest payable at Stated
Maturity or on any Redemption Date will be paid to the Person or Persons to whom
principal is payable.

      The Company shall give the Holder or Holders of the Series __ Subordinated
Debentures and the Trustee notice, as provided in Sections 105 and 106,
respectively, of the Original Indenture, of its selection or extension of an
Extension Period at least one Business Day prior to the earlier of (i) the
Regular Record Date relating to the Interest Payment Date on which the Extension
Period is to commence or relating to the Interest Payment Date on which an
Extension Period that is being extended would otherwise terminate, or (ii) the
date the Company or the Securities Trust is required to give notice to the
applicable self-regulatory organization of the record date or the date, such
distributions are payable. The Company shall cause the Securities Trust to give
notice of the Company's selection of such Extension Period to Holders of the
Trust Securities. The month in which any notice is given pursuant to the
immediately preceding sentence of this Section shall constitute the first month
of the first quarter of the twenty (20) consecutive quarters which comprise the
maximum Extension Period.

      At any time any of the foregoing notices are given to the Trustee the
Company shall give to the Paying Agent for the Series __ Subordinated Debentures
such information as said Paying Agent shall reasonably require in order to
fulfill its tax reporting obligations with respect to such Series __
Subordinated Debentures.

      "Deferred Interest" means (i) such installments of interest as are not
paid during any Extension Period, plus (ii) such interest as shall accrue on
such installments of interest not paid on an Interest Payment Date during such
Extension Period, accruing at the rate of ___% per annum from the applicable
Interest Payment Date to the date of payment, compounded quarterly, on each
Interest Payment Date, to the extent permitted by applicable law.
